Re: Looking for Family Records - Sicily

If you look at the censuses for Pasquale Imperato's family that I have posted below, you will see that they readily change their first names as well :-) Concetta becomes Carrie, Gennaro becomes ...

Re: Looking for Family Records - Sicily


OK... maybe a breakthrough :-)

I believe I have found him in the 1900 US Census residing on Degraw St. in the house of his brother, Pasquale.
He is listed as Louis, is age 26, a bricklayer (the whole family appears to have the same occupation), and states his arrival as 1894. This would be a more ...

I do not know if they married here or there, unfortunately.

I do not know if he was the first born.

I do not have an ancestory account but I'll try to find the same on FamilySearch, thanks!

And, I ...
